When we went to Hawk Mountain I had a great time. The hike was fun but my group and I did not see many birds at all. I think we saw five birds in total. They were all hard to identify but I am pretty sure that one was a Sharp Shinned Hawk. I heard the woman who was counting the hawks at the Northern Lookout saw an Osprey while I was there but I did not see it. Ospreys are fascinating Raptors because they act like many other birds. You can see them by lakes or oceans becuase they eat fish, but they also fly around like a less dangerous bird. I think that Ospreys are the coolest birds ever!
